mokmeister | hello! | 21:45 |
moylan | hi | 22:04 |
mokmeister | hi moylan, how're things? | 22:06 |
moylan | getting by, yourself? | 22:06 |
mokmeister | yeah, not so bad | 22:07 |
moylan | looking forward to 11.04? | 22:07 |
mokmeister | Yeah, have the beta running away (and crashing) on one of the pcs, I kinda like (ish) unity | 22:08 |
mokmeister | I'm sticking with 10.04 on my main desktop for quite a while though, methinks! :D | 22:09 |
moylan | haven't tried it yet. short on systems to test it on. anxious about unity as i don't like change for the sake of change. still on 10.04 on main system. | 22:09 |
mokmeister | yeah, 10.04 is too good! :D | 22:11 |
mokmeister | I like the side bar in unity, it's something I've been doing with gnome panels for a while, what with widescreens and all, it seems pointless taking up space on the bottom of your screen | 22:12 |
moylan | i'm used to having a popup panel at the bottom. not a fan of the current fad of widescreens. | 22:13 |
moylan | planning on going to the release party? | 22:20 |
mokmeister | Nope, down in Limerick | 22:20 |
mokmeister | will head along to the ubuntu hour and see what's going on methinks! | 22:21 |
moylan | isn't there a ubuntu group down in limerick? thought there was. | 22:21 |
mokmeister | Kinda agree with you on the wide screen thing, I do like a squarer panel meself | 22:21 |
mokmeister | well, the ubuntu hour is planned for the 28th in the Absolut hotel | 22:22 |
moylan | it's better for reading text. a portrait screen would be best for displaying a full page. but definitely taller than the widescreens. | 22:22 |
mokmeister | hi res, big screens, you could have pages all lined up in widescreen! ;) | 22:28 |
moylan | they used to make a screen that rotated 90' great for swapping between formats. | 22:32 |
mokmeister | yeah, I vaguely remember something like that. | 22:32 |
moylan | now it's just bigger and bigger screens. not sure that is progress. | 22:34 |
mokmeister | I thought bigger was better.... ;) | 22:36 |
moylan | but the bigger screens use more power. i'd be quite happy with a good 15' rather than getting a 19' wide screen just to see the same amount of lines in vim. | 22:37 |
mokmeister | Ah well, sure a 40 inch lcd probably wouldn't use as much power as a 20 inch CRT, so I wouldn't be overly worried about that. | 22:42 |
moylan | ah but a 15' lcd uses less power than a 17' lcd if chosen carefully. i prefer to use as little leccy as possible. | 22:46 |
mokmeister | right, time for bed, g'nite | 23:00 |
moylan | o/ | 23:00 |
